I want to connect to an IMAP and SMTP service.
I have to enter the email address (which is something other than the login name).
Do I give the login name, I cannot forward, do I give the email address, I can forward but the login into the server fails.
"Error connecting to IMAP server
Invalid certificate."
Ignoring brings me to SMTP
"Error connecting to SMTP server
Could not connect to <myserver>:
Connection refused"
I can use Encryption: None, STARTTLS after connecting or SSL on a dedicated port (where I cannot specify the port)
Here I can press Try Again as long as I want.
No config file is generated, I can Cancel the process and have no way to access CAL or CARDs
There are some providers (mostly cloud services) hard coded but a general connection option is not available (as is in Thunderbird).
If this does not work, Gnome Calendar, Addressbook, Geary and related applications are extremly limited in the usefulness.
I first filed this with Ubuntu 17.10, then tested with Budgy 17.10, then 18.04 and now with 18.10.
